ECR Spotlight – Jiaen Wu

ECR Spotlight is a series of interviews with early-career authors from a selection of papers published in Journal of Experimental Biology and aims to promote not only the diversity of early-career researchers (ECRs) working in experimental biology but also the huge variety of animals and physiological systems that are essential for the ‘comparative’ approach. Jiaen Wu is an author on ‘ Detecting artificially impaired balance in human locomotion: metrics, perturbation effects and detection thresholds’, published in JEB. Jiaen is a postdoc in the lab of Steve Collins at Stanford University, investigating human balance and locomotion to develop intelligent robotic exoskeletons that enhance mobility and stability.
